Now I remember, he was sitting in the lobby of a hotel in "Out of the Iron Curtain" with a child on his lap, and in "Topaz" he slowly passed by rocking a wheelchair, as Milan, the heroine of "The Birds" Ni walked into a pet store, and he was walking out with a pair of puppies. He has also appeared in a newspaper ad for weight loss, a vague silhouette on the glass of an office, or in a rickety train carriage with the heroine leaning on his shoulders. This Hitchcock, he will always have what he can control firmly in his hands, like a wise and intelligent murderer, in his murder plan, must be full of personal style and self-symbolism.
Someone once asked me why I liked Hitchcock so much. Before I figured out the answer, I could only vaguely praise it. This is a good question! Then I rediscovered one of his films, looked at the jacket, and it was "The Rope." I turned on the machine and watched it slowly engulf the disc, the flashes of green technology flickering, and I suddenly realized with surprise that this was an elegant murder.
Every crime must have a motive, a logic provided by all everyday experience. If a pair of gay men strangled a classmate to death just for a moment's pleasure, I don't know how many people would accept such a reason. This ten-length film is now drearily on my television, a post-murder family reunion, guests coming in, standing next to the box where the corpse is lying. An old woman in a lace hat was sitting on the sofa, talking about the stars' constellations. From her mouth, I learned that Ingrid. Bergman is the cautious Virgo, and belongs to the same constellation as Maggie Cheung and Leslie Cheung.
Hitchcock has worked with Ingrid Bergman several times, on "Dr. Edward", "Beauty's Plan", "Capricornus". And "Under the Capricornus" happened to be after "The Rope", Hitchcock took the opportunity to hold a star, because he thought that the most popular female star was invited to the United Kingdom to make a film, which attracted widespread attention from the local media. A beautiful thing. The same other big-name star, Paul Newman of Aquarius, after filming "Out of the Iron Curtain," vowed never to work with Hitchcock again, and he couldn't stand the tyranny of the Leo director. Hitchcock always has a way to make those disobedient actors suffer, and the heroine of "North by Northwest" climbed the President's Hill in such an embarrassing manner that even her stockings were cut.
The Leo, who is known for being as bright as the sun, also has such a tossing strategy. I wonder how much coldness I have never seen in this world? This is what the horoscope says, the seemingly innocent Virgo is actually very attentive, the seemingly generous Libra is actually very stingy, and the seemingly indifferent Gemini will hide in a corner of no one and cry secretly. Leo, who seems to be upright and upright, has been paying attention to you for a long time in secret. Hitchcock, who loves astrology, should know his hidden personality better than I do, and every one of his films is a deliberate murder that hides a smug smile behind his dry cough. He made every male lead a gentleman and every female lead a dazzling blond hair just to make his killings elegant and charming.
I couldn't stand the vulgar criminal life around me, the simple theft, the vulgar robberies, the unpoetic killings, which seemed to be just some overt evidence of stupidity. I can no longer bear those simple-minded criminals who always focus on one theme. From the way he walks, it can be seen that this is an unimaginative murderer. Late on a rainy night, I could clearly hear a woman screaming across the river, and I thought of Madeleine who fell from the church bell tower in Vertigo, and Marion who was taking a shower in The Psycho. Such imaginings made me feel inexplicably grateful for the screaming woman who made the night creepy and mysterious. That's how morbidly obsessed with Hitchcock and my malicious disapproval of this so-called Brave New World, because I know that after tonight, I'll have to appear in front of people with innocence and dignity, and tell them that I It has always been pure and flawless.
